Last Friday's 'Sermons on Grooming' in UK Mosques

Many people will now know about last Friday's 'sermons' against the
sexual grooming of children and young women which were read out during
Friday prayers at various mosques throughout the UK. It has been said,
by the BBC,
that these 'sermons' were given to "thousands of worshippers". The BBC
also said that the "sermon highlighted how the Koran emphasised that
Muslims must protect children and the vulnerable".

That last statement betrays either gross ignorance on the BBC's part or a knowing collusion with Muslim taqiyya. For a start, in the Koran it only talks about protecting Muslim children and Muslims
who are vulnerable. That sharp and absolute distinction between Muslims
and 'unbelievers' is transparent in the Koran and is reiterated very
many times.

In any case, how does the BBC know that these sermons were read to
"thousands of worshippers"? How can the BBC possibly know that?

About half of the UK's mosques, or less, are said to have delivered
this pre-written speech (not a 'sermon') about grooming gangs – i.e.,
the same speech at each mosque. How do we know this happened at each
mosque? In addition, according to a Muslim (from Bradford) speaking on
Radio Leeds, the imams were allowed to "adapt" the speech "for their own
mosque". That could mean anything – including complete rewrites. In
that case, how do we know these imams even mentioned 'Muslim grooming
gangs' rather than simply speaking of 'grooming gangs'?

And why has it taken at least thirteen years,
since this problem first came to light, for Muslims to do anything
about it? (I first heard about – and had experiences of – Muslim
grooming gangs, in Keighley and Bradford, around the year 2000 – that
is, thirteen years ago.) In any case, any Muslim response there had
been, as well as any council and police response, only occurred after
non-Muslims, and people outside the ruling authorities (including the
English Defence League), brought all this to light. Or, rather, they
didn't really bring these things to light as such because Muslims,
councillors, the social services and even local journalists knew about
all this but did bugger-all about it. What they responded to was not the
sexual grooming of young girls itself, but to the non-Muslim negative reaction to it. Only then did Muslims and the powers-that-be realise they had to do something about the massive problem of Muslim grooming gangs.

Finally, it was largely a publicity gimmick anyway; if not for all the Muslims involved, certainly for most
of them. The Muslim guy I heard on Radio Leeds seemed sincere enough
but his like won't win out in the end because moderates haven't done so
up until now either in the UK or in the Muslim world at large. If
anything, we are experiencing a worldwide phenomenon of Islamic or
Muslim retrogression, not progress.

Finally, part of the sermon, which is available online, states:

"Islam promotes a strict moral code of conduct on men and forbids
any sexual activity outside of marriage. We are obliged to be active in
ensuring the prevention and avoidance of any behaviour which can lead
to inappropriate and unacceptable sexual behaviour and indecency [fahisha]."

This is a classic example of a Muslim coming as close as you can get
to stating an outright lie, but without making that lie blatant or
obvious to non-Muslims.

The Muslim who wrote this will know full well that when Islam
"forbids sexual activity outside of marriage" that this only applies to
Muslim men having sexual activity with married and even unmarried Muslim
girls and women; not to having sex with 'unbelievers'. There are
numerous passages in the Koran, the Hadiths and other Islamic texts
which explicitly and categorically state that Muslim men, especially
'fighters in the cause of Allah', can have non-Muslim sex slaves,
non-Muslim concubines and even that they can rape non-Muslims either as a
form of jihad or as a form of punishment for being 'unbelievers'.

Readers should also see what's happening today in Syria in terms of the Sunni rape jihad there as well as their talk of Islamic sex slavery.
In fact people should look at what has really happened in Bradford or
Oxford with Muslim grooming gangs. Again, in the case of the Oxford
Muslim groomers, it wasn't just a case of the men feeling no guilt or
remorse about what they did; neither did the mother of two of the groomers.
In fact she (see image right) placed the blame fully on the shoulders of the young
victims. And she is just an ordinary Muslim mother. That's because in
Muslim countries not only are non-Muslims treated as second-class
citizens and often persecuted, they are also frequently raped as a
punishment for being 'unbelievers'. Above and beyond that, the victims
of rape, even when they are Muslim girls or women, are often seen as the
guilty party (especially in Pakistan, which is the country of heritage for most of our groomers).

If you put all that together it will become obvious that we have a
massive problem. I'm not talking about the massive problem that is
Muslim grooming itself because we all already know about that. I'm
talking the massive problem of tackling the main source and inspiration
behind Muslim grooming – Islamic culture and Islamic texts.
